Minneapolis, Minnesota therapist: Dr. Meghan Miller, psychologist
Perfectionism

Dr. Meghan Miller

Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Perfectionism can look like high standards and achievement on the outside, but internally it often feels like constant pressure, self-criticism, and fear of making mistakes. You may struggle to feel satisfied with your accomplishments or find that your self-worth rises and falls with performance. In therapy, I use evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you challenge rigid thinking patterns, reduce harsh self-talk, and develop a more flexible, values-driven definition of success. Our work focuses on maintaining excellence without sacrificing your well-being, relationships, or sense of self.

Minneapolis, Minnesota therapist: Embodied Counseling, counselor/therapist
Perfectionism

Embodied Counseling

Counselor/Therapist, MA, LPCC, CIEC, CCTP
Perfectionism shows up all the time for many of us. We have been trained for it almost our entire lives. Perfectionism is shame's cruise control. It's not going to be helpful on snow, ice, rain or traffic. I like to help clients unpack perfectionism to reduce anxiety, stress, and increase sustainable practices that help you get where your going, no matter what life throws at you.

Minneapolis, Minnesota therapist: Starlain Saldana, psychologist
Perfectionism

Starlain Saldana

Psychologist, PhD, LP
While aspects of perfectionism have often been helpful for folks to achieve and get to where they are in life, it also has a shadow side rooted in fear of failure, shame, and anxiety. Additionally, our society often reinforces perfectionism in ways that make it difficult from which to un-tangle. Our work will hold the ways it has been helpful while also challenging you to gain comfort with 'good enough' approaches to life.

Fargo, North Dakota therapist: Inner World Counseling Services PLLC, licensed professional counselor
Perfectionism

Inner World Counseling Services PLLC

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Perfectionism is rarely about a desire for excellence; usually, it is an exhausting shield used to protect yourself from judgment, failure, or feeling 'never good enough.' I specialize in working with high-achieving adults, 'fixers,' and peacekeepers who use perfectionism and over-functioning to stay safe, only to find themselves drowning in chronic worry and burnout. Together, we look beneath the behavior to heal the root anxieties and past traumas driving the need to be flawless. We will work to silence your harsh inner critic, dismantle the fear of letting others down, and help you trade the crushing weight of perfection for genuine self-compassion and peace

Minneapolis, Minnesota therapist: Omni Mental Health, Inc., counselor/therapist
Perfectionism

Omni Mental Health, Inc.

Counselor/Therapist, LMFT, LPCC, LICSW, DBT IOP
At Omni Mental Health, we recognize that perfectionism can be both exhausting and isolating. While striving for excellence can be a strength, perfectionism often creates overwhelming pressure, self-criticism, fear of failure, procrastination, anxiety, and difficulty feeling satisfied with accomplishments. Our therapists help clients explore the underlying beliefs and experiences that contribute to perfectionistic patterns while developing healthier ways to approach goals, expectations, and self-worth. Through a supportive and nonjudgmental process, we help individuals build self-compassion, increase flexibility, manage stress, and find greater balance so they can pursue success without sacrificing their well-being.

10 Years Experience
Online in Minneapolis, MN (Online Only)
Minneapolis has a progressive mental health culture with a high density of therapists, and the city saw sharply increased demand for trauma processing and grief work following the murder of George Floyd and the social upheaval of 2020. The city has a large Somali immigrant community as well as significant Native American, Hmong, and East African populations, with strong demand for therapists who specialize in refugee trauma, cultural adjustment, and identity. Minneapolis winters are long and severe, and therapists with experience in seasonal affective disorder and winter-related depression serve a real clinical need. Hennepin Healthcare and the University of Minnesota Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources alongside the city's extensive private practice community.
